This is a ‘good strategy’ in game theory terms if you assume Trump will punish you for not rolling over and showing deference and democrats won’t. Democrats should think about altering those incentives.

Reread about the Ft. Hood shooting due to this, and some of the soldiers there showed massive bravery in attempting to, unarmed, stop him that day. Just pissing all over what that represented by giving him a chance to win the argument at the 11th hour and turning his death into a like and subscribe.

still kinda jarring to see americans adopt positions that hamas at least nominally did not take publicly in the aftermath.

Yankees should hire a manager who is like Aaron Boone in many ways — a human being, of adult age, awake, the list goes on — but different in the sense that he isn’t a huge dumbass.

The Yankees used to be baseball's valedictorians, until somewhere along the way, they became content with a B+.

No one talks about how the Yankees lost Aaron Judge and magically invented another seven-foot player, who they call Spencer Jones. Not suspicious at all!

This is incredibly important. I feel deeply that curbing sexual violence will come from raising social expectations of men, not from ‘educating’ them. I fear this is an unpopular view, because people are afraid to face up to the scale of the issue.

Twenty years ago, on October 7, 2006, Anna Politkovskaya was murdered by Putin’s henchmen. She had warned about the true nature of the russian regime and urged that it not be allowed to continue until it was too late. Western leaders chose to listen to the appeasers—or succumbed to corruption.

I see very smart people credulously repeating the LA & SD thing without listening to the other words around it, and it's just not necessary, man. There's more actual real things to be furious, disgusted, and thirsting for political vengeance about with Trump than we can cover in 10 lifetimes.

It seems clear to me from the elided text he meant that higher gas prices are a small price to pay compared to the possibility of Iran taking out a major U.S. city (presumably with an atomic bomb). I’m not endorsing that view or its underlying premises. But it seems to me that’s what he was saying.

I'm still of the opinion that it makes us look silly and stupid instead of serious and smart when we start twisting context. There's so much material. So much! We don't need to make shit up.

"Fukuyama, properly understood, was not saying that events would cease after 1989, nor that there would be no further world-historical struggle. What he argued was that liberal democracy had become the only real game in town. Therefore, future battles would necessarily be fought in its defence…"

The End of History and the Final Girl
Anton Jäger’s "Hyperpolitics" is, at its best, late marginalia for "The End of History and the Last Man." At its worst, Jäger, like Fukuyama, is a prisoner of his political pieties.
